SPICY ROSE. A beautiful shade of vivid rose pink. A color lighter than that of Sidney 
Littlefield, but deeper and much brighter than that of Virginia Rose. A lively and appealing 
color. The flower is medium large, and of very attractive form. Plants are strong and pro- 
lic. Stems are long. Splitting is very slight. Keeping quality is good. 
BUTTERSCOTCH. Yellow-buff with slight pink tinting, but no lines or flaking, in center. 
Large, strong, prolific plants. Long stiff stem at all times. The first flowers are very large 
and full. Splitting occurs in the autumn, but is negligible after that. The size decreases dur- 
ing the winter, and the color is lighter, but the flower is still of good size, and the almost 
clear buff shade is attractive. It keeps splendidly. Is best grown in a warm location with all 
the light possible. 
BABY BRONZE. Yellow or bronzy-buff with slight pink tinting, but no line or flaking, in 
the center, giving the bronzy appearance. The first flowers are almost clear buff, the tinting 
appearing in late autumn and continuing throughout the season. The flower is medium to small, 
but full and of beautiful form. The size remains uniform through the season. The stems are 
long and strong at all times. Plants are vigorous, and this is one of the most prolific varieties 
grown. There is no splitting. It is an excellent variety for corsages, boutonniers and small 
floral arrangements. It keeps perfectly. 
RASPBERRY ICE. White petals almost completely overlaid with pale orchid or lavender, 
the color closely resembling that of raspberry sherbert. The color is much lighter and softer 
than that of Pelargonium, and blends nicely in floral arrangements. It is a very attractive 
end popular variety. The flowers are medium large and of attractive form. Plants are bushy 
and prolific. Stems are long. Keeping quality is good. There is no splitting.

tion is good. There is very little splitting; probably less than with Wm. Sim. Keeping qual- 
ity is excellent.
